Episode notes
Hey Science Nerds! This week's episode is with Dr. Parker, a Professor and University Scholar in the Department of Physics & Astronomy. Dr. Parker identifies observable properties of galaxies and correlates them with properties of their environment, such as the mass of the dark matter halo in which they reside, their position within this halo, and the properties of the gases that surround these galaxies. Tune into this episode to learn about Dr. Parker’s academic journey, her current research on galaxy evolution, and the role of undergrads in her lab!
